        Stunning! May I come and sit there, Loli, please? xx

        PS Was just looking again (testing to see if I could smell them) and only just noticed the chooks! :heehee: :chicken:

              Hi @lolimac,
              New member, recently joined.
              Just read your thread and wanted to add my congratulations.
              Your parterre looks magnificent.

              Hmm, wondering now if I should start digging up my lawn...

                    Thank you so much @OwdPotter ,@Spruce,@Mrs Hillard ..You're very kind:wub2:

                    @OwdPotter ..this was just a tiny lawn at the side of my garden that was neither use nor ornament but it has turned out just how I imagined it.:dbgrtmb: Bit of a battle with Box Blight but seemed to catch it early ...now it's a battle with Box Moth:gaah::gaah:

                          That is beautiful, my idea of heaven. The aroma must be amazing and to have a chicken for company makes it even more welcoming.

                          Thank you @Jazmine..yes the perfume is wonderful:wub2:
                          Sadly I don't keep Chickens anymore ,they are great company but these later years they'ed spent more time locked in their run and unable to roam because of the bird flue and that's not what I wanted for them so when I lost the last one I called it a day..I do miss them though.:chicken:

                          Oh that's sad, my son kept chickens but the fox got them all. There is something lovely seeing chickens roaming free.
